'''Asylum''' is a map variant of [[Forge World]].

Players used to be able to camp on top of a rocky wall via sprinting and jumping. It appears that Bungie added a soft kill zone there to prevent players from gaining an unfair advantage.


==Map variants==
 
Bedlam, a "spooky" variant introduced in the January 2012 update to [[Living Dead]] playlist,<ref>[http://halo.xbox.com/blogs/post/2012/01/10/January-Matchmaking-Playlist-Update.aspx '''Halo Waypoint''': January Matchmaking Playlist Update]</ref> gives the level a more decayed look and is more befitting for [[Infection]] games.
==Layout==
 
Asylum has two bases, a red one and a blue one. The map is not symmetrical, so the bases have a different design. In the middle is a neutral area with two curved ramps and platforms leading to two other buildings, one near the red base and one near the blue. Near the edge of the Quarry is another ramp leading up to the middle area. Scattered around the space by the bases are rocks that serve as barriers to hide behind if you're under fire.
 
 
 
==Strategies==
 
There are plenty of hiding spots on Asylum, and getting to some of them requires a jetpack. A nice sniping area is the roof on the building near red base. Without the jetpack, you can climb on the fins to get up. The rock in the corner by red base can be climbed on. This can serve as a good [[Infection]] [[camping]] spot.
